The processing of payments under the Targeted Agriculture Modernisation Scheme (TAMS II) is continuing on a weekly basis, with 460 claims on hand currently being processed.
To date, a total of 1,153 claims for payment have been submitted under TAMS 3. Payments are now commencing, with a total of almost €1.4 million issuing this week, and payments will continue to issue on a weekly basis as claims are submitted in respect of completed investments.
My Department is also continuing to issue approvals across all TAMS 3 schemes. To date, just over 13,000 approvals to commence investments have issued in respect of Tranche 1 and Tranche 2 applications. These will continue to issue, in conjunction with the processing of payment claims.
